Twitter fined $46 in Russia but could face being blocked for non-compliance with country’s law

Twitter has been fined $46 for refusing to disclose information requested by Russian officials. While the fine is miniscule, further non-compliance with the country’s law could lead to the social media giant being blocked.

The fine has been imposed amid an ongoing standoff between several social media platforms and the Russian media watchdog, Roscomnadzor. Last December, the regulator ordered Facebook and Twitter to disclose the location of servers that store the personal data of Russian citizens. According to the laws of the country, this data must be stored locally and not overseas.

According to Roscomnadzor, neither company has provided a “concrete answer” to its question, and an administrative case against them has been filed.

On Friday, a Moscow court fined Twitter 3,000 rubles (around $46) for its failure to disclose information to the country’s government. The fine is the lowest possible for such an offence, although the upper limit of such penalties is still only 5,000 rubles ($76).

Biden’s ‘creepy uncle’

President Donald Trump reminded Twitter that he is the heavyweight sh*tposting champion of the world, tweeting a montage of former VP Joe Biden sniffing himself during his video-apology… for sniffing people.

Videos of the former VP and likely 2020 candidate sniffing, touching and otherwise creeping out women and children at Washington events have circulated for years. Biden’s ‘creepy uncle’ demeanor was dragged into the media spotlight in recent days, however, after no fewer than seven women publicly accused him of inappropriate behavior.

Trump jabbed at his potential presidential rival in his own brash style, retweeting a doctored video showing the handsy Democrat fondling himself and sniffing his own hair, as accuser Lucy Flores says he did to her.

Trump To Skip White House Correspondents Dinner, Hold Rally Instead

President Donald Trump said Friday he will skip the 2019 White House Correspondents Dinner for the third year in a row and hold a political rally instead during a brief pool spray before departing for California. “Thee the dinner is so boring and so negative that we’re going to hold a very positive rally instead,” Trump said. “The correspondents’ dinner is too negative. I like positive things.”

Trump has skipped the annual dinner every year of his presidency, which was particularly mired in controversy in 2018 after comedienne Michelle Wolff made several jokes at the expense of White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Wolff attacked Sanders appearance and made several jokes about abortion which were considered offensive. Trump has teased the prospect of attending the dinner after the White House Correspondents Associations announced that in lieu of a comedian telling jokes, they would invite a respected presidential historian. The president floated the idea of attending the dinner after the announcement in November 2018.

Judicial Watch rightly puts the screws to Justice and the FBI

Because Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., seems loath to do real oversight, the outside organization Judicial Watch is very much on target in filing a lawsuit demanding “records of the planning and preparation of the raid of the home of former Trump campaign aide Roger Stone.” Former Trump lawyer John Dowd, whose judgment is not always the best but who is a savvy veteran of the Justice Department and of white-collar criminal battles, was right this week to compare the heavily armed commando-like raid of Stone’s home to “an amphibious landing.” “I used to be in the Marines,” he said. “I've done an amphibious landing. I couldn't believe they were doing one at Stone's house! It's muscular, it's over the top, it's designed to scare.”

Indeed, it was. And as I noted immediately after Stone’s arrest, over-amped raids such as this one are more likely to cause unintended violence and injury than to prevent it, sometimes quite literally with deadly consequences. Judicial Watch, well known as a vigorous watchdog, filed three separate Freedom of Information Act requests with the Department of Justice and the FBI in the days after Stone’s arrest. According to the organization’s press release, neither the department nor the FBI has responded to the FOIA filings. By law, FOIA requests must either be honored or acknowledged with an explanation for why the requested information is exempt from disclosure. Because the nation’s chief law enforcement agencies seem to be ignoring the law, Judicial Watch has filed suit to compel compliance.

Judicial Watch wants specific information both on why CNN was on hand to air the raid live, a question that looks to have been adequately answered, but still is worth double-checking, and on internal planning records and communications among various key actors at the FBI and at the Justice Department. It is the latter set of records that is probably most important. SWAT-team-like raids of the sort used against Stone are usually reserved for targets considered dangerous, likely to suddenly destroy evidence, or a risk for sudden flight. None of those considerations would appear, to the layman’s eye, to apply to Roger Stone. If they did not apply, then the commando tactics certainly seem to run afoul of rules in the FBI Investigations and Operations Guide that says arresting agents should “employ the least intrusive means” that will accomplish the mission. The public deserves to know why the FBI considered the Stone raid to be “the least intrusive” possible. “That we’re being stonewalled suggests that someone has something to hide,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “Judicial Watch is investigating the investigators, and it’s time for them to come clean.”

Harvard faces pay-to-play admissions scandal as fencing coach investigated

Harvard University is investigating its fencing coach, Peter Brand, in an alleged pay-to-play scheme involving the sale of his house to the father of an applicant for nearly double its estimated value in exchange for admission to the university.

In 2016, the coach sold his Needham, Mass., home to Jie Zhao for nearly $1 million, despite its estimated value of $549,300, the Boston Globe reported. Soon after the sale closed, Zhao’s son was admitted to Harvard and joined the fencing team. Zhao sold the house a year-and-a-half later at a $324,000 loss.

This episode comes as several top universities, including Stanford, Yale, and Georgetown, have been implicated in scandals involving college counselors bribing coaches to ease admission for children of well-heeled parents. USC has also been at the center of the college admission scams, with actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin allegedly facilitating payments to grease the skids for admission of their respective daughters.

Harvard said this appears to be a one time event and not related to that college admissions scandal, known as “Operation Varsity Blues.” “Our current understanding is that these allegations are not related in any way to the ‘Operation Varsity Blues’ scheme to influence student college admissions decisions at several prominent American research universities,” Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences Dean Claudine Gay said in a statement Thursday.

Zhao has denied the allegations, saying he bought the home as a personal favor to Brand, who he contends is a close friend.

Who Are the Rich, White Men Institutionalizing Transgender Ideology?

Exceedingly rich, white men (and women) who invest in biomedical companies are funding myriad transgender organizations whose agenda will make them gobs of money.

As an environmental activist who was deplatformed from a speaking venue by transactivists, in 2013 I developed curiosity about the power of this group to force this development. A year later, when Time magazine announced a transgender tipping point on its cover, I had already begun to examine the money behind the transgender project.

I have watched as all-women’s safe spaces, universities, and sports opened their doors to any man who chose to identify as a woman. Whereas men who identify as transwomen are at the forefront of this project, women who identify as transmen seem silent and invisible. I was astonished that such a huge cultural change as the opening of sex-protected spaces was happening at such a meteoric pace and without consideration for women and girls’ safety, deliberation, or public debate.

BREAKING NEWS ALERT

It was a modest house by Needham’s standards, a center-entrance colonial, three bedrooms and a two-car garage on a quarter-acre lot. The inside hadn’t welcomed a renovator in many, many years, and the outside didn’t wear its age particularly well.

Its owner: Peter Brand, Harvard University’s legendary fencing coach. Its assessed value: $549,300.

So when the house sold to a wealthy Maryland businessman for close to a million dollars in May 2016, the town’s top assessor was so dumbfounded that he wrote the following in his notes: “Makes no sense.”

Now it might.

The buyer, it turns out, was the father of a high school junior who was actively looking at applying to Harvard with an eye toward being on the fencing team.

Soon enough, Jie Zhao’s younger son would gain admission and join the team. And Zhao, who never lived a day in the Needham house, would sell it 17 months after he bought it for a $324,500 loss.

The home sale may become the next chapter in the national debate over fairness in college admissions.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte told China on Thursday to “lay off” an island occupied by Manila in the disputed South China Sea and said he would deploy his soldiers there if Beijing touches it.

Duterte’s remarks, which he said was not a warning but rather a word of advice to a friend, follow a statement made by the foreign affairs ministry calling the presence of more than 200 Chinese boats near Thitu Island illegal.

“I will not plead or beg, but I am just telling you that lay off the Pagasa because I have soldiers there. If you touch it, that’s a different story. I will tell the soldiers ‘prepare for suicide mission’,” Duterte said in a speech, using the local name for Thitu.

Comes as disgraced lawyer looks to have three-year prison sentence reduced

Michael Cohen has accused President Trump of instructing him to lie to Congress about when negotiations ended to build a Trump Tower in Russia, it's been claimed.

In documents filed late Thursday night, Cohen's legal team reportedly claim Trump used 'coded' language to encourage the disgraced lawyer to lie under oath and say the Moscow tower project had ended by January 31, 2016.

Cohen's attorneys, Lanny Davis and Michael Monico, said the president urged their client 'during various conversations' to say there was 'no collusion, no Russian contacts, nothing about Russia' after the start of the campaign, according to BuzzFeed.

The revelations come in a 12-page memo sent to senior House Democrats in a bid to have his three-year prison sentence reduced.

'Cohen explained that he was, in effect, instructed to lie about the January 31, 2016 date through the use of Trump code words that could only be interpreted as an instruction or "directive",' the memo states, 'to cover-up the fact that Cohen had been in contact with Russians during most of the presidential campaign, from the day of the Iowa caucuses, February 1, through all the primaries and caucuses and until June 2016, after Trump had become the putative Republican nominee by assembling a majority of delegates.'

The memo also claims Trump's attorney called Cohen and congratulated him for lying to the House and Senate Intelligence committees, and said the then-Republican frontrunner was 'happy with Cohen's testimony', according to the news outlet.

If true, the memo corroborates a beleaguered BuzzFeed report published in January.

Travis View, the co-host of QAnon Anonymous podcast, told Newsweek that the post was "part of the Q narrative that there is no legitimate criticism of QAnon, and 'media attacks' only happen because the MSM is scared and/or secretly believes that QAnon is true."

DOJ reaches $122M settlement with drug companies over Medicare violation

April 4 (UPI) – Three drugmakers accused of illegally paying copays for Medicare patients reached a settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice totaling $122.6 million Thursday. The Justice Department said that Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Lundbeck LLC and Alexion Pharmaceuticals violated a statute that prohibits a pharmaceutical company from offering or paying any remuneration to induce patients to purchase the company's drugs. "This misconduct is widespread, and enforcement will continue until pharmaceutical companies stop circumventing the anti-kickback laws to artificially bolster high drug prices, all at the expense of American taxpayers," U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling said.

In 2011, Jazz allegedly requested that an outside foundation create a fund that would pay the copays of Medicare patients using its narcolepsy drug Xyrem. The company then made Medicare patients ineligible for Jazz's free drug program, instead referring them to the foundation. This enabled Jazz to generate revenue from Medicare and induce purchases of the drug instead of providing them for free. "Meanwhile, Jazz raised the price of Xyrem by over 150 percent from 2011 through the end of the relevant time period," the Justice Department said.

Lundbeck – which manufactures Xenazine, the only approved drug to treat ailments associated with Huntington's disease – allegedly funneled millions of dollars into a fund that ostensibly provided financial support only for patients with Huntington's disease. The company then referred Xenazine patients with other conditions to the foundation and paid their copays for the unapproved uses.

Alexion also allegedly asked a foundation to set up a fund to cover out-of-pocket expenses for patients that take Soliris, a drug used to treat a rare blood disorder that costs $500,000 a year.

Jazz and Lundbeck each entered five-year corporate integrity agreements as part of their settlements, which require them to ensure any patient assistance programs they donate to are operated independently. Alexion wasn't required to enter such a deal because the Justice Department said it had already made "sweeping and fundamental" organizational changes including hiring a new eight-member executive leadership team and changing half of the members of its board of directors.

Notable: Facebook Caught Phishing For Friends?

Facebook Got Caught Phishing For Friends

Once again, Facebook is in the news for bad security practices, dark design patterns, and secretly reappropriating sensitive data meant for “authentication” to its own ends. Incredibly, this time, the company managed to accomplish all three in one fell swoop.

What happened?

Last weekend, news broke that Facebook has been demanding some new users enter their email passwords in order to sign up for an account on the site. First publicized by cybersecurity specialist e-sushi on Twitter, the unnervingly phishing-like process worked like this: any user who tried to create a new account on Facebook with an email from one of a few providers (including Yandex and GMX) was directed to a page that asked them to “Confirm [Their] Email”–by entering their email password.

Soon after the news was reported more widely by The Daily Beast and Business Insider, Facebook discontinued its verify-with-password program. EFF was made aware of the sign-up flow before the stories were published. Armed with a burner Yandex email and a fresh browsing session, we were able to experiment with the password-grabbing tool briefly before it was shut down.

First, we observed that when we clicked on the “Connect to yandex.com” button, our email and password were sent directly to Facebook. Do not pass go, do not “Connect” to the third-party service the password belongs to. Facebook might not have stored our password, but it certainly saw it.

At a glance, there didn’t appear to be any way to avoid signing up without compromising our email password in this way. However, in the background, the company had already sent a traditional “confirmation email” to Yandex. We could have closed this signup window, gone to our email, and opened the link from there. Boom, done, we’d be “Confirmed.” But oddly, we didn’t see any indication of that on the “Confirm” page at first. We had to click on “Need Help” in order to see a dialog informing us that, actually, there was no need for a password at all….

Venezuela Then and Now: The “Achievements” of Chavista Socialism

There are two Venezuelas: the Venezuela of yesterday, prosperous and thriving, and the Venezuela of today: poor, corrupt and in the dark.

Venezuela is a country that has changed a lot since its golden years, those in which it was the symbolic capital of Latin America, due to its progress, drive and sustained economic growth. Today, Venezuela is the poorest country in the region. All this happened after 20 years of socialism. Rather than writing a reflection or analysis of this situation, I present some data that shows the radical changes from the era of democratic Venezuela of the 1980s, to the current Venezuela governed by Chavismo.

Maduro Defeats Trump, Abrams Announces the Surrender

Elliott Abrams' decision to discard the option of use of military force against the dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro has dealt a severe blow to the Venezuelan opposition.

Elliott Abrams, the United States envoy to Venezuela, has surrendered: “I do not think Europe, Latin America, Canada and the United States are thinking, at this moment, of a military reaction.” It was his response to concern about whether interim president Juan Guaidó should request a military intervention, or cooperation, through the activation of Article 187, Section 11 (which establishes that the National Assembly can authorize foreign military missions in Venezuela).

“I think it’s premature. I think it’s not the right time…My advice would be that at this time it would not be very useful,” he stressed in an interview with Caracol Radio.

The United States has thus neutralized, with Abrams’ statements, the credible threat. He has just uncocked a loaded revolver, pointing at Maduro.

And the dictator can breathe a sigh of relief.

Notable: Leaked Msgs Show Goog Employees Freaked Over Heritage Foundation Link

EXCLUSIVE: Leaked Messages Show Google Employees Freaking Out Over Heritage Foundation Link

Internal discussion threads exclusively obtained by Breitbart News shows Google employees in meltdown over the tech giant’s decision to include the president of the conservative Heritage Foundation, Kay Coles James, on an artificial intelligence advisory council. Multiple Google employees in the thread also engaged in outright smears against the Heritage Foundation. Google employees accused the think-tank of transphobia, homophobia, and “extremism,” of viewing LGBT people as “sub-human,” questioning their “humanity,” and supporting “exterminationist” views.

“Would we even consider having a virulent anti­-semite on the advisory board? How about an avowed racist or white supremacist?” asked one Google employee. “This seems like a double standard where anti­-LGTBQ positions are tolerated more than other extreme discriminatory views.” “You don’t need racists, white supremacists, exterminationists on the board to know their stances. you can just talk to their targets” insisted another. “It’s so upsetting that some of our leaders overlooked such hateful positions as Kay Cole James and the Heritage foundation have articulated and regularly advocate for,” complained another Google employee. Another employee suggested that the “rhetorical violence” of the Heritage Foundation “translate[s] to real, material violence against trans people, particularly trans women of color.” “There’s no need to have these people in positions of any kind of authority in order to get their views” wrote another. Another Google employee was so incensed by the Heritage Foundation that he suggested another employee who defended the inclusion of Coles James on pragmatic grounds should lose his job. “It’s not snobbery to object to associating with and legitimizing an organization dedicated to eliminating LGBTQ+ people from public life, driving them back into the closet, denying them healthcare, and so on,” raged the employee.

“It’s basic human decency, treating it like a difference of opinion is simply monstrous and I don’t think it belongs on this list, or at Google at all.” “Please feel free to see yourself off this list if all you have to contribute is concern trolling about whether or not we’re pandering to rank bigotry enough. I’m muting you, and I think you should take a long hard look at how you’re behaving here.”

At least one of the Google employees who smeared the Heritage Foundation and its president is a prominent A.I researcher who has attended tech symposiums at the Obama White House. Meredith Wittaker, co-founder of NYU’s A.I. Now Institute and head of two projects at Google, the Open Research Group and the Measurement Lab, is revealed as one of the most vitriolic opponents of conservative involvement in Google A.I. In the thread, Whittaker describes Kay Coles James, a black conservative who leads one of the most influential think-tanks in D.C., as an “outspoken bigot” who supports policies that “dehumanize and marginalize.” In a different leaked discussion thread, Whittaker attacked the idea of viewpoint diversity (the idea that it’s valuable to tolerate and include a variety of ideological and political viewpoints) as “dangerous.”

More than 70 Jehovah's Witness sexual abuse victims speak up after Belgian documentary

More than 70 victims of sexual abuse within the Jehovah's Witnesses have come forward with their stories since the public network aired a documentory about it last week, reports the nonprofit organisation Reclaimed Voices Belgium.

The documentary brought to light that the organisation had been covering up sexual abuse of minors via an internal 'disciplinary' system for years, concluded Pano. That way, none of the claims were reported to the police. One of the witnesses in the documentary was very straightforward in calling it "a paradise for paedophiles".

According to CIAOSN, an independent centre set up by Belgium's Department of Justice to study sectarian organisations, there are similar findings in 12 other countries. The report concludes that the issues in all other countries are the same. Due to the strict hierarchy of the organisation, it's very difficult to come forward, reports CIAOSN.

The elders of the organisation usually don't listen to the victims, or don't help them. They usually tell them to keep their mouths shut, said one of the witnesses. "I was told to keep the abuse to myself. 'We don't want to slander God's name.' I had to trust them to take care of it. They told me to pray some more and everything would be fine."

Michael Cohen offers Democrats new evidence against Trump in bid to delay prison

President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen says he has new information to offer Democrats if authorities reduce or delay his upcoming three-year prison sentence. In a letter to lawmakers Thursday, Cohen’s attorneys say he has discovered substantial files on a hard drive that could help investigations of the president. The hard drive is said to include over 14 million files, which consist of all emails, voice recordings, images and attachments from Cohen’s computers and phones, his attorneys Lanny Davis, Michael Monico and Carly Chocron wrote. “To date, Mr. Cohen has located several documents that we believe have significant value to the various congressional oversight and investigation committees,” his attorneys wrote.

In exchange, Cohen is seeking for congressional help to persuade the Southern District of New York to allow him more time before reporting to jail so he can review the files. He is also asking for a reduced prison sentence while he “is fully cooperating with prosecutors and Congress.” Cohen is also asking top Democrats on the panels to write letters to prosecutors with the Southern District of New York outlining his cooperation. Cohen’s attorneys say he only recently discovered the hard drive. “With 30 days left before he surrenders to prison, time is no longer a luxury he is capable of,” they added.

Cohen was sentenced last year for three years in prison for financial crimes, campaign finance violations and lying to Congress. He appeared before three congressional panels earlier this year, accusing Mr. Trump of financial fraud and orchestrating hush money payments to women who alleged having affairs with the president.

Notable: GOP senators alert Barr to allegations that Mueller team misrepresented emails

GOP senators alert Barr to allegations that Mueller team misrepresented emails

Shortly before Special Counsel Robert Mueller filed his report on the Russia investigation last month, Sens. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., alerted Attorney General Bill Barr to what they described as the "selective" use of emails in Mueller court filings – as well as potential “improper political influence, misconduct, and mismanagement” in the FBI's original Russia probe. In a March 8 letter, Grassley and Graham referred Barr to a letter sent to Mueller in late 2017 that alleged his investigators had cherry-picked details from emails to include in court documents, urging him to review the materials. They also notified him that they had asked DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz a year earlier to review the original FBI probe.

It's unclear if Barr reviewed the senators' letter; a DOJ representative declined to comment on the missive. But Fox News is told the lawmakers wanted Barr to have this material before he reviewed the Mueller report, out of concern some emails were selectively quoted to give a “nefarious” impression. Fox News has also obtained the 2017 letter (above) from Grassley to Mueller, which spelled out the lawmakers' concerns about the “absence of additional context” in the court filings – as well as concerns over how those documents were covered in the media. "The glaring lack of [context] feeds speculation and innuendo that distorts the facts," Grassley wrote at the time.

In their March letter to Barr, Grassley and Graham pointed specifically to emails quoted in the Statement of Offense against former Trump adviser George Papadopoulos. That court filing said Papadopoulos emailed another campaign official in May 2016 with the subject line, "Request from Russia to meet Mr. Trump." The document said the email stated that Russia "has been eager to meet Mr. Trump for quite sometime and have been reaching out to me to discuss," adding in a footnote that the official forwarded the email to another campaign official asking to discuss: "We need someone to communicate that DT is not doing these trips. It should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal." The senators said media outlets then seized on the fragments to report a "Campaign official suggested 'low level' staff should go to Russia." However, they said the full emails – obtained from the Trump campaign – tell a different story.

“In full context, the emails in question actually show that the Trump Campaign wanted someone 'low level' to decline these types of invitations,” Grassley and Graham wrote in the letter to Barr. The senators added: “Another citation was reported by some news outlets as evidence that the campaign, notably Papadopoulos and Sam Clovis, encouraged personnel to meet with the Russians." This line in the original court document said that a campaign supervisor (later identified as Clovis) told Papadopoulos "I would encourage you" and another adviser to "make the trip" if possible, with regard to a meeting with Russians. The senators wrote, however, that "additional context shows that Papadopoulos had conversations with representatives from multiple governments, not just Russia, and that Clovis had opposed any trip to Russia for Mr. Trump and the campaign." Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to making false statements to FBI agents in October 2017 in connection to the Russia investigation and is currently on a 12-month supervised release from federal prison. He is now seeking a pardon from Trump.

Meanwhile, in late February of last year, Graham and Grassley also sent a letter to Horowitz requesting that his office look into “potential improper political influence, misconduct, and mismanagement” of the counterintelligence and criminal investigations into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia before Mueller’s appointment. “The referral was based in part on materially inconsistent statements reportedly made by Christopher Steele, the author of the anti-Trump dossier funded by the Democratic National Committee and the Clinton campaign during the 2016 presidential election,” their letter to Barr states. It continues: “The documents we have reviewed also raise questions about the role Bruce Ohr, a senior Justice Department official whose wife worked for Fusion GPS, had in passing allegations from Steele and Fusion GPS to the FBI after the FBI had terminated Mr. Steele as a source.” The IG's office is reviewing potential surveillance abuses by the FBI, as well as leaks out of the bureau and improper gifts received by officials.

Allison Mack and Seagram’s Heiress Have BFF Reunion at Court Today

When Smallville actress Allison Mack arrived to court Thursday in the NXIVM sex-cult case, she and Seagram’s liquor heiress Clare Bronfman acted more like recently reunited friends from an upstate summer camp than alleged cultists.

Bronfman — who nearly collapsed in court last week after it was revealed that disgraced celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti had worked on her case — and Mack enthusiastically embraced in the hall outside of Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis’s courtroom just before 11 a.m.

Mack and Bronfman exchanged ebullient cheek kisses and lingering hugs. Both were dressed casually. Mack sported leopard-print sneakers and secured her hair with a red pencil in a messy bun. Her dark pants resembled pajamas.

Bronfman had on a thin, off-white sweater with a back that was bejeweled with a pattern like some sort of New Agey flower, the kind one might spot on costly yoga garb.

After entering the courtroom, Mack and several of the many lawyers present joked with one another while waiting for the conference to start. At times, it seemed like Mack was trying to hide her laughter by tucking her mouth into a scarf.

Mack’s initial mood seemed strange, considering all the allegations — and the looming scheduled April 29 trial date.

In a surprise move, Garaufis decided during the proceeding that the jury would remain anonymous even after the trial ended. He also decided that they would be “partially sequestered,” meaning they will be taken to and from the courthouse by U.S. Marshals and required to stay inside during trial days. It’s rare for this to happen, considering these kinds of measures are typically used for defendants like Mexican drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán.

Garaufis admitted that “there is no actual danger to the jury,” but he didn’t like the “possibility” that a journalist or member of the public could approach a juror posttrial.

Alleged NXIVM ringleader Keith Raniere, who’s been accused of sex trafficking and possessing child pornography, was also present, sporting a khaki jail outfit and man bun.

Prosecutors allege that Raniere created a secretive sect in the purported self-help organization called DOS in 2015 that “operated with levels of women ‘slaves’ headed by ‘masters.’” Mack and other “masters” recruited DOS “slaves” and “directly or implicitly required her slaves … to engage in sexual activity with Raniere.” Mack allegedly got “financial and other benefits from Raniere” in return.

It was mentioned in court again that Mack was in apparent plea negotiations, with her lawyer saying he and prosecutors were having “what continue to be fruitful discussions of a possible resolution.”

After the proceeding wrapped, a markedly more serious-looking Mack left alongside her lawyer, who declined to comment. Mack didn’t comment on the case.

Petrodollar Panic: Saudis Threaten To Dump USD-Oil Trades Over OPEC Anti-Trust Bill

Three year ago - almost to the day - Saudi Arabia rattled its first sabre towards the United States, with an implicit threat to dump US Treasuries over Congress' decision to allow the Saudis to be held responsible for the 9/11 attacks.

In a stunning report at the time by the NYTimes, Saudi Arabia told the Obama administration and members of Congress that it will sell off hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of American assets held by the kingdom if Congress passes a bill that would allow the Saudi government to be held responsible in American courts for any role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Then, six months ago, the Saudis once again threatened to weaponize their wealth as the biggest importer of arms from America in the world.

UK Police ready 10,000 riot officers as fears Brexit tensions could worsen.

The head of the National Police Chiefs Council, chief constable Charlie Hall, has revealed that at least 10,000 officers have been amassed, trained in tactics to stop looting. It’s a greater number than was deployed during the riots that blighted England in the summer of 2011.

Hall claims that reinforcements for local police could begin within an hour of a request and take up to eight hours to fully deliver, insisting “We would easily run at that pace for the first seven days.”

Martin Hewitt, chair of National Police Chiefs Council, has issued a warning that “prominent individuals” should avoid inciting anger given the “febrile” and “emotive” atmosphere currently enveloping Britain.It comes as concerns are being raised that rhetoric surrounding the Brexit debate could be contributing to inflaming tensions.

Notable: MI5: Cases of far right terror “absolutely dwarfed by the number of Islamist cases”

Notable.

Cases of far right terror “absolutely dwarfed by the number of Islamist cases”, says Britain’s MI5.

According to MI5, Britain’s Security Service, the number of far-right terror occurrences dealt with by authorities was ‘absolutely dwarfed’ by the number of cases committed by those with radical Islamist backgrounds.

In contrast to Britain’s foreign intelligence Secret Intelligence Service, SIS or MI6, MI5’s primary tasks are comprised of domestic security and counter-espionage. The evaluation of the respective seriousness of the radical Islamic terror threat and the extreme right terror threat was revealed about midway through a Guardian report which predominantly focused on the latter threat. Similar articles were republished by other mainstream liberal media outlets like MSNBC and CNN.

In the same article, the leftist Guardian’s cites claims made by the Swedish far-left HOPE Not Hate organization which purported that ‘huge numbers of Britons are among the global audience for far-right forums’ online. ‘HOPE Not Hate’ describes itself as ‘anti-fascist’ and has received funding from the billionaire, preeminent globalist, and open borders guru George Soros.

Sara Khan, Britain’s anti-extremism ‘tsar’, was also quoted in the Guardian’s article, where she talks about the “frightening amount of legal extremist content online”, which globalist leftists insist is stoking extreme right-wing violence. Comments like these suggest that ‘liberal’ politicians and bureaucrats are seriously considering clampdowns on online anonymity and uncensored discussion forums like 4chan, 8chan, Reddit, etc.

Retail Vacancy's reach 2011 level's: JCPenney, Payless, LifeWay To Close Over 3,000 Stores

The weak keep getting weaker. Another 3,000 stores will bite the dust and mall vacancies are at an 8-year high.

In the post-digital era, only the strong will survive. Darwin would love this,” said one retail analyst as JCPenney, Payless, LifeWay Announce 3,000+ Combined Store Closures.

Retail job cuts for January and February total 41,201, said research firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas in a new survey, including nationwide retailers such as Payless and Charlotte Russe.

“This is significant, and marks an acceleration of store closures and job cuts in the near term," said Mark Hamrick, a senior economic analyst at Bankrate.

“Retail is ground zero for seeing the shifts of change in our lives.”

Lifeway Christian Bookstores announced last week it would be closing the doors of all 170 brick and mortar stores, in a pivot to focusing on digital and e-commerce.

“The decision to close our local stores is a difficult one,” said Lifeway Chief Executive Officer Brad Waggoner.

“While we had hoped to keep some stores open, current market projections show this is no longer a viable option.”

“In the post-digital era, only the strong will survive,” Ron Johnson, CEO of Enjoy, a retail technology company, told NBC News.

“You need a great brand, a strong balance sheet, and a vision for experience that commences digitally. Darwin would love this.”

The Financial Times notes US Shopping Centre Vacancies Rise to Eight-Year High

"US retailers have set out plans to close 5,480 stores, according to Coresight Research — almost as many as the 5,730 announced in all of 2018."

Notable: Breitbart News senior editor: “crystal clear” that China was “buying off” Joe Biden

>>6051261

Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “The Ingraham Angle,” Breitbart News senior editor-at-large Peter Schweizer, author of “Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends,” discussed questionable dealings involving Hunter Biden, son of former Vice President Joe Biden, and foreign money.

Schweizer told host Laura Ingraham it is “crystal clear” that China was “buying off” Joe Biden, a potential 2020 presidential candidate, through his son.

“In December of 2013, Hunter Biden flies on Air Force 2 to Beijing, China, with his father. His father meets with Chinese officials, he’s very soft on Beijing. The most important thing that happens happens 10 days after they return. And that’s when Hunter Biden’s small, private equity firm called Rosemont Seneca Partners gets a $1 billion private equity deal with the Chinese government, not with the Chinese corporation, with the government. And what people need to realize is Hunter Biden has no background in China, he has no background in private equity, the deal he got in the Shanghai free-trade zone, nobody else had. Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Blackstone, nobody had this deal.”

Notable: Israeli Strikes On Syria: Weapons, Effect, Consequences

Israeli Strikes On Syria: Weapons, Effect, Consequences

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) continue their bombing campaign in Syria. In the framework of this campaign, IDF aircraft strike what the Israeli leadership describes as Iranian infrastructure and weapon shipments to Hezbollah and pro-Iranian armed groups. Nonetheless, positions and equipment of the Syrian Armed Forces often appear to be target of Israeli strikes allegedly aimed solely against Iran. In rare cases, when Israel publicly admits strikes in Syria, it claims that the SAF is being targeted because of its “hostile actions” towards Israeli missiles and aircraft entering Syrian airspace.

The unofficial and illegal pattern of Israeli strikes, the double-faced public attitude of the Israeli leadership as well as the unwillingness of Syrian and Iranian forces to admit any damage and casualties caused by Israeli actions hinder efforts to get a real assessment of the effectiveness of the IDF military campaign. Taking into account that the IDF provided little details even into officially declared strikes, this breeds grounds for wild media speculations and rumors.

On the one hand, Syrian and Iranian media demonstrate a classic example of “there were no casualties” coverage. On the other hand, US and Israeli media, and sometimes even official Tel Aviv, time and time again destroy almost entire Iranian military infrastructure and even Syrian air defense system, which then mysteriously resurface by a next Israeli strike.

Despite this, the jets and weapons list employed by the IDF against targets in Syria are an open secret.

The core of the Israeli Air Force striking force is the F-16I Sufa. This warplane is a modified variant of the F-16D block 50 and 52 fighter and ground attack aircraft. The F-16I, which has a crew of two, differs from the original F-16 by modified avionics and weapons systems.

The F-16I is fitted with a pair of removable conformal fuel tanks provided holding 450gal of extra fuel on both sides of the upper fuselage. They increase the aircraft’s mission range and combat endurance. The fitting of conformal tanks makes the two wing inner store stations normally used for external tanks available for weapon carriage expanding the warplane’s air-to-ground weapons capacity. The F16I is fitted with a dorsal avionics compartment, which extends from the rear of the cockpit to the fin and houses additional avionics systems, chaff and flare dispensers and the aircraft’s in-flight refuelling receptacle. Among other equipment, the F-16I got the Elbit Dash IV display and sight helmet system, mission and presentation computers, and digital map display. The jet navigation system includes a combined ring laser gyro inertial navigation system, global positioning system (RLGINS/GPS) and a digital terrain system. The F-16I has the Northrop Grumman AN/APG-68(V)9 multi-mode radar, which reportedly has 5 times the processing speed and 10 times the memory capacity of the previous APG-68 radars on the F-16.

Notable: , >>6051516 Google staffers are in revolt, demanding the removal of Kay Coles

Google staffers are in revolt, demanding the removal of Heritage Foundation president Kay Coles James from an advisory board the company convened on artificial intelligence. A petition with more than 2,000 signatories from within the company was published on Medium on Monday, with the title “Googlers Against Transphobia and Hate.”

The petition’s signers described the appointment of Coles, a black grandmother, as a “weaponization of the language of diversity.”

The petition was promoted internally within the company by five individuals, some of whom have a history of leftist agitation. The Daily Caller obtained emails from a private listserv in which most of the petition’s sponsors made critical comments about the James appointment.

One of them, Meredith Whittaker, who leads Google’s Open Research Group, posted on a private Google listserv that, “I would disagree that their views are important to consider, when those views include erasing trans people, targeting immigrants, and denying climate change.”

Three of the other promoters of the petition are software engineers Joëlle Skaf, Nina-Marie Amadeo and Irene Knapp. The fifth is Emily Metcalfe, a privacy engineer.

“There is no debating the humanity of other people, especially ones who have had no power to fight policies advocated by entities like the Heritage Foundation,” wrote Skaf in an email on a private listserv the day James’ appointment was announced, continuing:

It is infuriating to see people on this thread give credence to despicable theories just because ‘marketplace of ideas’ or ‘more articulate people’ or whatever else. This is NOT a game. Google has enormous power, power that it frankly seems to not know what to use for. And asking entities like the Heritage Foundation for their opinions on how to use that power is misguided and will not lead an ethical use of AI. … In all cases, Google CONTINUES to show a total lack of leadership on these issues and a total capitulation to the political whims of the moment.

Notable: Australia and catastrophically stupid tech laws

After Christchurch shooting, Australia doubles down on being stampeded into catastrophically stupid tech laws

Australia leads "developed democracies" in the adoption of poorly thought-through, dangerous tech laws, thanks to its ban on working cryptography, rushed through in late 2018; now, with no debate or consultation, the Australian Parliament has passed a law that gives tech companies one hour to remove "violent materials" from their platforms with penalties for noncompliance of up to 10% of annual global turnover.

The law was rushed through in the wake of the Christchurch mosque shootings, after which the platforms completely failed to enforce their own policies, allowing millions of reposts of the footage streamed by the killer. This is part of a culture of negligence and willful blindness by the platforms, whose unwillingness to confront these matters is the stuff of legend and set them up for this outcome.

But if we think the platforms suck at moderation now, just wait until they can lose 10% of gross revenues for not having a sufficiently itchy trigger finger when it comes to censorship. We've already seen how platforms routinely block and censorthe victims of crimes who are seeking justice. We've also seen that trolls are happy to expend the time and energyneeded to master the policies of platforms and skate right up to them, while goading their opponents into crossing them so they can get them censored.

The EU was hoping to pass nearly identical legislation but failed to do so in the last Parliament, largely because its focus shifted to mandatory copyright filters, but the passage of the Australian law is sure to influence the European debate after May's EU elections. But these issues are all connected: once platforms are algorithmically filtering all user speech in the name of copyright, it's easy to just allow someone to shovel unlimited amounts of unappealable "terrorist" and "violent" content into the blacklist's hopper. And while computers are incapable of distinguishing copyright infringement from fair use – they're even worse at distinguishing reports of hate crimes from hate crimes themselves.

At the same time, larding big platforms with public duties like these – the sort of thing that costs tens or hundreds of millions to accomplish – also ensures that we will never be able to cut them down to size and break up their monopolies. Once you deputize Big Tech with tasks that no small tech can perform, you also foreclose on any measure that might make Big Tech any smaller.

This is a catastrophe for the global internet. Between Australia's crypto ban, the EU Copyright Directive and now the panicked passage of a napkin-doodle into national law, we are watching the high-speed Chinafication of the western internet in realtime.

The chief executive of Atlassian, Scott Farquhar, said that no one wanted abhorrent violent material on the internet but “the legislation is flawed and will unnecessarily cost jobs and damage our tech industry”.

“The current legislation means that anyone working for a company that allows user generated content could potentially go to jail for [three] years,” he said.

“As written, that applies to news sites, social media sites, dating sites, job sites – anywhere user content could be created.”

Farquhar complained that the legislation failed to define how “expeditiously” violent material must be removed, and did not define who in a social media company could be punished.

*House and Senate building superintendents placed on administrative leave over inappropriate emails*

The superintendents for both the House and Senate office buildings have been placed on administrative leave pending an investigation into inappropriate emails, Fox News has learned.

Multiple sources confirm to Fox that House Building Superintendent Bill Weidemeyer and Senate Building Superintendent Takis Tzamaras were placed on administrative leave pending an investigation.

At issue are inappropriate emails regarding Acting Architect of the Capitol Christine Merdon.

Weidemeyer and Tzamaras both report to Merdon. Weidemeyer is in charge of the Cannon, Longworth and Rayburn House Office Buildings, and Tzamaras is in charge of the Russell, Dirksen and Hart Senate Office Buildings.

Lawmakers and congressional committees maintain their offices in those sets of buildings, located just across the street from the Capitol.

Merdon became Acting Architect of the Capitol in February after Architect of the Capitol Stephen Ayers retired last year. There have only been 11 Architects of the Capitol in U.S. history. The Architect of the Capitol is nominated by the president and confirmed by the Senate. Architects of the Capitol handle the congressional campus infrastructure, including the Capitol itself, the adjacent office buildings and the Library of Congress.

President Trump has not formally nominated anyone for the open Architect of the Capitol position.

An aide for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., directed inquires about the matter to the Architect of the Capitol’s office.

The Architect of the Capitol’s office did not respond to inquiries by Fox News.

Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel (CDU) empfängt morgen den früheren US-Präsidenten Barack Obama im Kanzleramt. Die Begegnung am Nachmittag sei als vertrauliches Gespräch eingestuft, die Öffentlichkeit solle nicht unterrichtet werden, teilte ein Regierungssprecher in Berlin mit. Weitere Angaben wollte er nicht machen.

Obama hatte in seiner Amtszeit als US-Präsident (2009 bis 2017) eng mit Merkel zusammengearbeitet. Seit dem Antritt seines Nachfolgers Donald Trump kühlte sich das deutsch-amerikanische Verhältnis deutlich ab. Das dürfte eines der Themen bei der Begegnung sein. Obama ist derzeit auf Deutschland-Reise.

In der Kölner Lanxess-Arena sprach Obama vor mehr als 14.000 Zuschauern und Zuschauerinnen über gute Menschenführung. Er verglich das Amt des US-Präsidenten mit dem eines Kapitäns auf einem sehr großen Schiff.

Man müsse dort schnell Geduld lernen. „Man kann es nicht drehen, und plötzlich geht es in die entgegengesetzte Richtung“, erläuterte er. Es gebe da ein „großes Lenkrad“, und es seien viele Leute an Bord. Hoffentlich habe man am Ende einer Amtszeit eine bessere Richtung eingeschlagen.

DOJ Defends Barr Summary

April 4 (UPI) – Amid mounting criticism from Democrats and observers, the U.S. Department of Justice on Thursday defended its four-page outline that summarizes the nearly 400-page final report from special counsel Robert Mueller.

Mueller completed his investigation into Russian election interference late last month and Attorney General William Barr issued the summary on March 22. It said Mueller's team found no evidence President Donald Trump's campaign colluded with Russians before the 2016 election – but did not clear the president of obstructing justice. Since then, many have demanded the department release the full report – particularly after learning it's nearly 400 pages long.

"Given the extraordinary public interest in the matter, the attorney general decided to release the report's bottom-line findings and his conclusions immediately – without attempting to summarize the report – with the understanding that the report itself would be released after the redaction process," Justice Department spokeswoman Kerri Kupec said Thursday. She added that every page of the report contains confidential grand jury information that can't be publicized.

The department plans to release a redacted version of the report – minus the sensitive information – in the coming weeks.

The department's statement Thursday follows reports in The New York Times and Washington Post that say some investigators on Mueller's team are unhappy with the limited information in Barr's summary.

The Times report said some investigators told associates Barr failed to adequately portray the findings, and that the report was more damaging to Trump than the outline indicated. The Post report said findings on the charges of obstructing justice were "alarming and significant."

The House judiciary committee on Wednesday approved a subpoena for Mueller's full report, which could compel Barr to release it. The panel said it hopes it doesn't have to use the subpoena.

Barr has said he's been working with Mueller's office on making redactions and the White House will not get an advance reviewing of the document.

Also Thursday, tens of thousands of protesters are expected nationwide to demand the full report with rallies in hundreds of locations.

Reuters quotes diplomats revealing IAEA inspected facility in Tehran multiple times in March; results of samples taken from site will be ready in June

Inspectors from the UN’s nuclear agency have visited a facility in Tehran that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said was an undeclared site used by Iran to house nuclear material, according to a Reuters report on Thursday.

Speaking at the United Nations in September, Netanyahu called on the International Atomic Energy Agency to inspect the “secret atomic warehouse” in the Iranian capital, which he said may be storing some 300 tons of nuclear-related equipment and material.

The speech came months after Israel’s disclosure that it had spirited away what it said was a “half-ton” of Iranian nuclear documents from Tehran, with Netanyahu saying both the archive and the warehouse were proof that Iran continues to seek atomic weapons despite the 2015 international agreement to limit its nuclear program.

Following Netanyahu’s appearance, IAEA head Yukiya Amano said nuclear inspectors had visited “all the sites and locations in Iran which it needed to visit,” while pushing back on the prime minister’s assertion that the organization had failed to act on intelligence provided by Israel on the warehouse.

MOSCOW, April 4. /TASS/. Moscow sees moves by the US and NATO towards the ‘military absorption’ of Transcaucasia as a major military and political challenge, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in an interview with the Azerbaijani ONA news agency timed to mark the 27th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Russia and Azerbaijan.

This region is "a sphere of Russia’s major interests," the diplomat stressed. "First of all because of its geographic proximity. The importance of the South Caucasus in a broader geopolitical context is obvious," Zakharova said.

"An unceremonious bid by well-known non-regional forces to redraw the CIS map to their own design can be perfectly seen" in the region, she stressed. "We consider the activity of the US and NATO towards the ‘military absorption’ of Transcaucasia as a most serious military and political challenge for Russia," the diplomat stressed.

"And of course, we can’t help but mention the unsettled conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh, where two of our closest friends and partners are engaged in unfortunately - Azerbaijan and Armenia," the spokeswoman said.

"Maintaining stability in the South Caucasus, ensuring the development of the region with a friendly attitude of its countries towards Russia will remain one of the main goals of Russia’s foreign policy," the diplomat said.

The interview was uploaded to the Foreign Ministry’s website.

Belt and Road Initiative in Full Swing in Europe

The multipolar transformation that is occurring across the Eurasian continent confirms the industrial and diplomatic cooperation between China and the European continent in spite of strong opposition from the United States.

Xi Jinping's visit to Europe confirms what many of us have been writing about over the past few months and years, namely, the reality of an ongoing global transformation of a world dominated by the United States to a pluralistic one composed of different powers collectively shaping a multipolar world.

Europe therefore finds itself in fortuitous position, balanced as it is between its old world links to the United States on the one side and the fledgling Eurasian one being ushered in by Russia and China on the other.

Countries like Germany and France, but even the United Kingdom, have long implemented commercial policies that encourage integration between the countries of the Eurasian supercontinent. In 2015, the United Kingdom was among the first Western countries to join the Chinese Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), which finances projects of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).

The Chinese BRI mega project kicked off in 2014 with the ambitious goal of integrating trade between China and Europe by sea and by land, in the process incorporating all the countries in between. The idea, as a natural consolidation of trade, is to shorten the delivery times of goods by rail and integrate sea routes. The project covers not only ports and rail lines but also the construction of technological infrastructure to achieve global interconnectivity using the 5G technology developed by the Chinese tech giant Huawei.

Germany and France have over the years deepened their partnerships with Beijing. Paris in particular boasts historical ties with China stemming from the nuclear cooperation between China General Nuclear Power Group (CGNPC) and Électricité de France (EDF) stretching back to 1978, as well as the aerospace one between Airbus and the Chinese aviation companies that has been ongoing since 1985.

Saudi Nuclear Facility Near Completion According To Satellite Photos

Saudi Arabia has nearly completed its first nuclear reactor according to satellite photos of the facility published by GoogleEarth, which reveal a "columnar vessel that will contain atomic fuel," according to Bloomberg.

Located in the southwest corner of the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology in Riyadh, the new facility has raised concerns in the West - as the Saudis have yet to sign up to the international framework of rules adhered to by other nuclear powers in order to prevent civilian atomic programs aren't used to develop weapons. Nuclear fuel providers, meanwhile, cannot legally supply the new reactor until modern surveillance arrangements have been reached with the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna.

Kevin Spacey's lawyers returning to court in bar groping case

A judge will consider motions filed by lawyers for Kevin Spacey, who's charged with groping an 18-year-old man on Nantucket in 2016.

The Oscar-winning former "House of Cards" actor won't be present for Thursday's hearing at Nantucket District Court.

Spacey's attorneys have been seeking to preserve phone and electronic records between the man — who says Spacey unzipped his pants and fondled him — and the man's girlfriend at the time.

Spacey pleaded not guilty in January to felony indecent assault and battery. His lawyers have called the accusations "patently false."

The assault allegedly occurred at a restaurant on the island off Cape Cod where the young man worked as a busboy.

It's the first criminal case brought against Spacey after several sexual misconduct allegations crippled his career in 2017.

Candy carcinogens: Petroleum-based additives are being used in popular children’s candy

If given the choice, how many parents would put petrochemicals in their children’s food? But when you buy most children’s foods on grocery store shelves, that’s the decision you’re making. These products are filled with petrochemical-derived ingredients from artificial colors to preservatives. Alarmingly, these ingredients have also been linked with health problems from hyperactivity to cancer.

A study in the journal Clinical Pediatrics examined just artificial food colors, and found these harmful chemicals in 96.3 percent of candies, 94 percent of fruit-flavored snacks and 89.7 percent of drink mixes and powders. When children’s and adult foods were examined together, 43.2 percent of all products were made with artificial colors. Fresh produce was the only food category not made with artificial colors (yes, that means meat, dairy and baked products may all contain fake color!).

The most egregious class of additives is certainly artificial colors, for which a strong body of evidence exists linking them to direct harm to children’s nervous systems. Evidence that artificial colors can produce hyperactive behavior in children has already led European countries to require warning labels on foods containing these ingredients. In fact, the same companies that use artificial colors in children’s products in the U.S. typically use naturally based colors for the same products in Europe.

On food labels, watch out for anything labeled a “dye” — a synthetic, petroleum-based coloring chemical, or a “lake” — the same color, but reformulated to be water-insoluble for use in dry or fatty foods. According to Center for Science in the Public Interest, the best policy is to avoid all foods made with artificial colors, not just because of the potential for health risks, but because artificially colored foods are typically low in nutritional value.

Seagram’s heiress wants separate trial from NXIVM leader

She may have shared a bed with him — but she definitely doesn’t want to share a courtroom.

Lawyers for Clare Bronfman are asking a judge to grant the Seagram’s heiress a separate trial from cult leader and accused kiddie porn producer Keith Raniere — saying that while prosecutors allege Bronfman and Raniere had sex with each other, they can’t prove she committed any sex crimes.

Allegations of the affair were revealed in a new motion filed by Bronfman’s attorneys asking Brooklyn federal Judge Nicholas Garaufis to dismiss the newest indictment against her and to grant the 39-year-old her own trial.

In the fresh indictment, prosecutors accused the Nxivm head Raniere of manufacturing child porn while engaging in an unspecified sexual relationship with a 15-year-old girl. Bronfman is charged with identity theft and also racketeering conspiracy, which includes an allegation that she knew of Raniere’s relationship with the child.

“Try as it might, the government remains unable to explain why it would be allowed to introduce evidence of sex crimes at Bronfman’s separate trial. It argues that Bronfman had sex with Raniere and told another woman (whose visa she allegedly helped obtain by fraud) not to have sex with her husband,” the defense writes, referencing Raniere, though the two are not married.

“But even if this is true, having sex and talking about sex does not suggest that Bronfman knew about sex crimes or that those sex crimes have any bearing on the government’s case against Bronfman,” the filing reads.

Her attorneys add in the filing that Bronfman had absolutely no knowledge of Raniere’s alleged sexual relationship with underage victims, and “undisputedly” had no knowledge of DOS, the secret society within Nxivm accused of branding women who were being used as sex slaves for Raniere.

Bronfman appeared Thursday alongside Raniere and “Smallville” actress Allison Mack in court, where she appeared in good spirits.

It was a far cry from last Wednesday, when the beverage heiress fainted in court following a question from the judge about whether she’d lied about hiring embattled attorney Michael Avenatti to represent her. She clarified during a hearing the following day that she’d briefly retained Avenatti, but then fired him.

Outside the courtroom Thursday, Bronfman smiled when her attorney Mark Geragos let slip that Monday will be her 40th birthday.

“Thank you,” she mumbled when offered early felicitations.

Geragos declined to comment when asked if his client shared a sexual relationship with Raniere.

Garaufis has yet to rule on Bronfman’s motion for a separate trial. Openings are scheduled for April 29.

Goldcorp shareholders approve Newmont's $10 billion takeover offer

(Reuters) - Goldcorp shareholders approved Newmont Mining Corp’s $10 billion takeover offer on Thursday, removing one of the last remaining hurdles to create the world’s largest gold producer.

While some Goldcorp shareholders had voiced concerns in recent weeks, in the end there was little push back against blessing the biggest-ever corporate takeover in the gold sector’s history, according to Refinitiv data.

The deal, which would create a company with assets in the Americas, Africa and Australia, will be voted on by Newmont shareholders next Thursday. If approved, the deal is expected to close by June.

About 97 percent of Goldcorp’s outstanding shares that were voted at a special meeting were cast in favor of the deal, the company said in a statement. Newmont had offered 0.328 of its shares and 2 cents for each Goldcorp share.

“We appreciate Goldcorp shareholders’ vote of confidence, which moves us one step closer to creating the world’s leading gold business,” Newmont Chief Executive Gary Goldberg said in a statement.

Vancouver-based Goldcorp shares rose slightly on Thursday afternoon to C$15.39 in Toronto, and shares of Denver-based Newmont rose slightly to $36.02 in New York. The benchmark S&P/TSX Global Gold Index gained 0.8 percent.

The new company, to be called Newmont Goldcorp, will overtake current market leader Barrick Gold Corp in annual production, churning out 6 million to 7 million ounces of gold annually over the next 10 years, compared with Barrick’s forecast of 5.1 million to 5.6 million ounces for 2019.

The $1 billion to $1.5 billion of assets the combined company is expected to shed, combined with mines Barrick plans to sell in the wake of its acquisition of Randgold Resources earlier this year, is expected by analysts to fuel further sector deals.

That is a change from the last several years, when miners focused on cutting costs instead and investors lost confidence in the industry after years of dilutive share issuances and pricey acquisitions.

Amazon wants to launch thousands of satellites so it can offer broadband internet from space

"Project Kuiper" is Amazon's plan to launch 3,236 satellites to build a network to provide global high-speed internet.

The move represents the latest space ambition from Jeff Bezos.

There's a race among several major players to build a next-generation broadband network in space, including Elon Musk's SpaceX and SoftBank-backed OneWeb.

Amazon is planning to build a network of more than 3,000 satellites federal filings reveal, in an ambitious attempt to provide global internet access.

Known as Project Kuiper, the move represents the latest space ambition from Jeff Bezos. Amazon has previously announced its cloud business will build a network of satellite facilities on Earth and Bezos' space venture Blue Origin continues to move closer to launching space tourists.

"Project Kuiper is a new initiative to launch a constellation of low Earth orbit satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world," an Amazon spokesperson told CNBC in an emailed statement.

"This is a long-term project that envisions serving tens of millions of people who lack basic access to broadband internet. We look forward to partnering on this initiative with companies that share this common vision."

Amazon's proposal is for a network of 3,236 satellites. Building, launching and operating the satellites will require intensive capital, likely billions of dollars. But Bezos has already been funding Blue Origin with upwards of $1 billion a year and Amazon itself remains one of the world's most valuable companies. GeekWire first reported the filings on Thursday.

Mexican Border State Local Police Accused of Protecting Gulf Cartel

MONTERREY, Nuevo Leon – The police chief of a rural town and two officers were arrested as part of an investigation into their alleged roles in protecting Gulf Cartel leaders and operations.

The arrests took place last week when police officers with Nuevo Leon’s Fuerza Civil were patrolling the highway that connects Los Aldamas with Los Herrera, approximately 35 miles south of the Texas border city of Roma. Breitbart News obtained a police report that revealed some details of the ongoing investigation. As the officers were patrolling, a black pickup with police logos appeared to be escorting another vehicle and then blocked traffic in order to allow the second vehicle to escape. The police logos on the black pickup were made to look like Fuerza Civil decals.

Pompeo urges France not to tax American tech firms as competition with China heats up

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has urged his French counterpart not to slap a digital services tax on US tech companies. The warning comes as the US and China compete for technological dominance in Europe.

“Secretary Pompeo urged France not to approve a digital services tax, which would negatively impact large US technology firms and the French citizens who use them,” the State Department said after Pompeo met French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian at a NATO summit in Washington on Thursday.

The proposed tax would target the largest US tech giants, amid public outcry over the minimal corporate taxes many of these firms pay in Europe. Draft legislation unveiled last month would slap a three percent tax on digital advertising, the sale of personal data and other revenue from any technology company that earns more than €750 million ($841 million) each year.

Washington’s strong-armed defense of American tech firms is one battle in the wider war for tech dominance worldwide. Chinese President Xi Jinping visited France late last month to ink a series of trade deals with French President Emmanuel Macron, as France weighed up allowing Chinese tech firm Huawei to participate in its rollout of 5G networks.

Pompeo has warned that the world should have its “eyes wide open” about the risks of using Chinese technology, which America’s intelligence agencies say facilitates Chinese state spying.

In Europe, the reaction has been mixed. The French Parliament debated a bill on Wednesday that did not explicitly name Huawei, but would require providers to hand over equipment for testing in order to be eligible for lucrative 5G contracts. Britain, too, has taken a tough stance on Huawei, pushing the firm to open itself up to audits by intelligence agency GCHQ, while Poland has outright banned Huawei from building its 5G network.

Moscow theater? Bibi’s meeting with Putin designed to woo Israelis ahead of election, analyst says

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to Moscow was motivated primarily by a desire to show weary voters ahead of Israel’s upcoming election that he is a respected leader on the world stage, an analyst told RT.

The Israeli prime minister met for several hours with President Vladimir Putin in the Russian capital on Thursday, but the timing of his visit, rather than the topics of discussion, seemed to interest analysts the most.

Amir Oren, a veteran Israeli journalist and political commentator, said that while Netanyahu likely petitioned Putin on one of his favorite pet issues, Iran’s military presence in Syria, the meeting was clearly held for domestic consumption back home in Israel.

The main point is probably to gain domestic support because [Netanyahu] has consistently tried to portray himself as being, as he said, in a different league than all other political candidates – someone with global stature, who can meet with both the American and Russian presidents, and host the Brazilian president and others.

Whether the diplomatic stunt will give him a boost in the polls ahead of the April 9 election is another matter, noted Oren.

While some might speculate that Putin lent Netanyahu political support by agreeing to the impromptu summit, Oren pointed out that relations between Russia and Israel have almost certainly deteriorated following Washington’s decision to recognize Tel Aviv’s illegal annexation of Syria’s Golan Heights.

Trump Punts On Border Closure, Gives Mexico A Year To Stop Flow Of Drugs & Immigrants Into US

resident Trump has punted on his plans for closing the southern border, telling a group of reporters on Thursday that he will give Mexico a year to stop the flow of migrants and drugs into the US. If they fail on either count, Trump will either slap tariffs on Mexican-made cars or close the border entirely.

"You know I will do it. I don’t play games…so we’re doing it to stop people. We’re gonna give them a one year warning, and if the drugs don’t stop, or largely stop, we’re going to put tariffs on Mexico and products, in particular cars. The whole ballgame is cars….and if that doesn’t stop the drugs, we close the border."

It was unclear whether an agreement with Congressional Democrats would also be a condition for the border closure, after Trump said Tuesday that Congress needed to get rid of chain migration, catch and release and the visa lottery and "do something about asylum" or he would still consider closing the border. "If Mexico doesn't or we don't make a deal with Congress, the border will be closed."
